History[]
Descended from the Wind Shogun Cyclead, King Neo Descal at some point became the ruler of the regime founded by the Descal Space Pirate Fleet on Earth in the future and took on the name "Neo Descal". King Neo Descal would lead Neo Descal in invading planets across the cosmos and coating them in darkness, in the name of achieving a universal peace by unifying every living being as "one".
When Sazer-X sent a team back in time through a wormhole to stop Descal's invasion of Earth in the past and Neo Descal's formation, King Neo Descal dispatched Grouza and Garade to follow them through the wormhole and stop them from changing the timeline.
Initially, Sazer-X was unable to do anything to stop the flow of time in the direction of Neo Descal's rise. However, after Takuto inadvertently stopped Blaird and Thundera from becoming lovers, erasing Grouza and all others descended from their bloodline, King Neo Descal decided to head into the past to personally take command the Earth invasion in 2005 and ensure no other changes to the timeline occurred. Accompanied by his second-in-command Barreda, Neo Descal led a massive fleet to the wormhole to travel back in time. Although the Sazer-X lieutenant Tobey blew up the wormhole, King Neo Descal and Barreda were able to pass through it in their Neo Deark flagship and arrived in 2005. King Neo Descal's first action after entering the past was to execute Garade, both as punishment for his repeated failures to defeat Sazer-X and to keep him from possibly killing Aqual and Cyclead and causing more changes to the future.
Feigning reverence for Aqual and Cyclead, Neo Descal and Barreda brought them on board Neo Deark and offered to assist them in any way they could in defeating Sazer-X and conquering the Earth. In fact, the two were really planning to use the Two Shoguns to distract Sazer-X and buy them some time while they completed their actual objective: Rather than collect the Cosmo Capsules and use them to conquer Earth, as history had dictated, they would construct a machine on the moon called "Dark-Alumer" and use it to cover the Earth in darkness, transforming it into the same state it was in the future and ensuring the timeline stayed functionally the same. When Aqual came up with a scheme to use one of the Cosmo Capsules to lure out Sazer-X, King Neo Descal had his imperial guard Dagos assist her and keep Sazer-X busy.
As Cyclead was the only Shogun who needed to be kept alive to ensure they still existed, King Neo Descal and Barreda planted a device on his head to make him more tyrannical and easier for them to manipulate. The two had Cyclead concoct various schemes to defeat Sazer-X, in order to keep them focused away from the construction of the Dark-Alumer. To further elude Sazer-X, King Neo Descal had the Dark Alumer constructed beneath the surface of the moon and had a fake Dark Alumer built on top of it. Sazer-X destroyed the fake Dark Alumer, but did not realize the real one was still being constructed.
King Neo Descal and Barreda also began to grow suspicious of Aqual after observing her interacting with Takuto and Blaird. To prove her loyalty, Aqual captured Takuto, Remy and Blaird and brought them before King Neo Descal, but Neo Descal saw through it as an attempt to find out where the Cosmo-Capsules were located and began torturing her with electricity as punishment for her defiance. However, Ein and Zwein then showed up to rescue the captured Sazer-X members and took back the Cosmo-Capsules. As Sazer-X, Blaird and Aqual were escaping, King Neo Descal appeared to confront Takuto. He revealed to Takuto that Commander Shark was the son of a human and a Space Pirate, and would thus disappear if Descal's conquest was undone, causing Takuto to hesitate and allowing him to steal his Lion-1 Cosmo-Capsule. With one of the Cosmo-Capsules in his possession, King Neo Descal had prevented Sazer-X from using the Cosmo-Capsules to undo his tyranny in the future.
After Cyclead was captured while laying preparations for the Dark-Alumer on Earth, King Neo Descal ordered Barreda to speed up the construction of the Dark-Alumer, just in case Sazer-X should decide to kill Cyclead. Once the Dark-Alumer was completed, King Neo Descal activated it and had it generate a beam of dark energy. At the same time, King Neo Descal sent down the darkness beast Dark Geran to Earth to draw the darkness towards the planet. Although the Dark-Alumer was destroyed by Ad ramming it with Adle Eagle, the darkness continued to head towards Earth. At the same time, Takuto rammed Lio-Carrier into Neo Deark in order to get on board and take back Lion-1. Barreda went to go deal with them, but was unable to stop Takuto from making it to the bridge and confronting Neo Descal.
With help from Patora, Takuto was able to take back the Lion-1 capsule, but hesitated in sending it to G2 when he remembered that using them to erase Neo Descal would also erase Commander Shark, allowing King Neo Descal to snatch it back. It was then that Dark Geran was destroyed by Wind Eagle, Magna Beet and Drill Angler, causing Barreda to comment that they were finished. King Neo Descal, however, remained unfazed and informed Barreda that her usefulness was over before impaling and killing her with his cane. He then merged with the remains of Dark Geran and recreated the beast with his own life force in order to continue drawing the darkness to Earth. Sazer-X continued to do battle against Dark Geran in their mecha, but Neo Descal was able to decimate Wind Eagle and Magna Beet, leaving Drill Angler as the only remaining mecha. As Remy piloted Great Lio to back up Drill Angler in fighting Dark Geran, Takuto used Neo Deark's teleporter to transport himself inside of Dark Geran to take back the Lion-1 Cosmo Capsule. There, Takuto found himself confronted by King Neo Descal's consciousness, which took the form of a dark equivalent of Lion-Sazer called "Black-Lio." After matching all moves Takuto tried to use on him, Black Lion told Takuto that they both shared the same goal of stopping the fighting and that his true goal was to bring peace to the universe by using the darkness to unite everyone as one. Takuto however was not swayed and responded that people's differences were what made the world a great place to live in. Takuto accused King Neo Descal of only wanting to turn everyone in the universe into himself, but Black Lio again affirmed his beliefs.
Eagle-Sazer, Beetle-Sazer and Blaird then burst in after using the last remaining Core-Braver to penetrate through Dark Geran and assisted Takuto in fighting Black-Lio. The three grabbed Black-Lio and held him while Takuto pulled the Lion-1 capsule out of his chest, before slashing and destroying Black-Lio. This did not kill King Neo Descal, as his consciousness was fused with the darkness, but his came immediately after when Remy, Ein, Zwein, Gordo, Patola, Aqual and Cyclead piloted the Lio-Sazer to perform the move "Howling Crush" on Dark Geran, while Lio-Sazer, Eagle-Sazer, Beetle-Sazer and Blaird simultaneously combined their powers to attack King Neo Descal's consciousness within the darkness beast, obliterating King Neo Descal's mind and body at the same time and finally destroying him.
After gathering all 12 Cosmo-Capsules, Takuto and Sazer-X would use them to wish for a timeline where Descal never took over the Earth and Neo Descal was never formed, resulting in King Neo Descal being erased from having ever existed.
